Description

For over 40 years students, designers, and manufacturing practitioners have used the Fundamentals of Tool Design to gain an in-depth understanding of all the factors that impact tool success. Fully illustrated, readers will find practical design examples, cost analysis calculations, process data, operating parameters, and tips and techniques — all of the concrete knowledge needed to spark innovation and resolve complex tooling challenges.

Expanded learning resources include how to use the nine DVDs of the Fundamentals of Tool Design Video Series to complement your study. A sample DVD, which includes video clips from the video series, is included with the book. Additional review questions at the end of chapters, along with an expanded, standalone Instructor's Guide enhance training and classroom instruction.
